    My wife went for H4 visa on Dec 19. I booked flight ticket on 28th. So it seems like I need to postpone the date by at least a week.

    Your comments are welcome...Thanks!!

    That's too short a wait. You have to give atleast 10 working days to be safe. It takes 7 working days for many people these days and if you are lucky you can get it sooner than that.

    Well said and I agree. USCIS can be more transparent and be clear. They can always tell us that it would take X years and people can plan better and decide accordingly. Why cant they do it is beyond my reasoning. Frustrating part is they wont do that! Everyone makes alternate plans and has a threshold for waiting. I guess this is what nitinboston was trying to say that dont be obsessed about it. Many people took it wrongly and started called names which just shows immaturity. Anyways, GC or no GC one should live happily wherever that be :-)

    Minimal response so far. Please have this as an action item and please remove all the old links that are less valid now. If we can have some fresh links and those which can blink , it may attract attention. I know the other way will be when the situation changes like a job loss or out of status.. but I think we dont need to wait too long..

    hello EVERYBODY..need help..

    this is the email came from my lawyer today..for the inquiry they did with the consulate regarding my visa.

    Hi Shweta,

    We understand how frustrating this is for you. We received a response to our inquiry with the consulate. It seems the application is being kept pending for additional administrative processing. The stated reason for the review falls within the law under Section 221(g) of the Immigration and Nationality Act. Under these circumstances, we typically see that the government issues a notice to the applicant wherein additional information is often requested. Kindly advise if you have received any notification from the consulate on this issue.

    Best regards,


    IS ADMIN PROC DIFFERENT FROM ADD ADMIN PROC ???

    also the same day i called DOS and they told me case was approved already in jan..so that means that now more processing needs to be done ??

    ADVICE ??

    Buying a house is a risky proposition on H1 specially considering the fact that if one is laid-off and needs to relocate within a short-time then one may end up loosing money. Besides getting into the hasseles of home maintainence is trouble-some and expensive and probably not worth the time and effort if one is uncertain about their future in this country.

    Having said that if an individual is good at taking calculated risks and has a secure job then rewards are truly exceptional. I would rather wait atleast till the time of filling I-485 before making any long-term investments in this country. I know lot of my friends are probably going to do the same.

    Good luck.

    Look at my case.

    1) EB3 PD March 2002. After more than 4 years I got my Labor.
    2) Filed for I-140 . Cannot file 485 now.
    3) H1B 9th year going on.

    One good thing I did ,I bought a house in Dec 2002.Now If I sell the same house,I will get minimum 100K profit. I will get good appreciation now.I recommend you guys to buy a house now. It is the best time to buy a house,because it is "Buyers market" now ! You can make some money if you sell it later...

    Isn't H1B renewal more risky than I-485 as for H1B you have to worry about more things like, Prevailing Wages, LCA, Ability to Pay and even from the cost point of view for H1B most likely you will need a lawyer whereas for EAD/AP it is doable on your own?

    Am I missing something.

    Regards

    He is not talking about Indians, rather he talks about H1b in general. Since India does not have equivalent social security system, US Govt and Indian Govt did not sign any contracts. Other countries like Canada / UK / AUS have mutual agreement between them and US for transferring the social security paid in US to be transferred to their home country if the alien returns to the home country.

    Even Indian Govt (P.Chidambaram) I beleive is working with US Govt to get these SS paid by Indians who have returned back to India. Since the US system and Indian system does not allow with the current rules and regulations to transfer the amount, it is stalled. may be down the line even India would work with US to get these amounts back.

    I heard something like this, but not sure: If you decide to move back to India, you can fill out a form and submit to INS/IRS which states that you will never come back to US for any reason. If you do it, they will pay your SS money back. I dont know anymore about this.

    I agree. this kind of slander should be fought. Not only SS, but Medicare, Unemployment, and Federal state and city taxes.
    Besides getting benefit from taxes, we cannot avail of any of the other benefits (SS, Medicare, Unemployment)
    A lawsuit should shut them all up, and also show we are not weak or helpless.
    We are not slaves, and unlike illegals do not have to beg for mercy. After suffering the entire immigration process, to hear lies like this should not be taken lying down

    I guess I may fall victim of FBI background check. Even though, my priority date is not current yet but, it should be next couple of months based on recent EB-2 movement. We had our AOS interview last Nov and IO told us that she is going to initiate another Background check as original BC is more than two years old. In the end of April, I made an Infopass appointment out of curiosity because Background check use to be a major source of delay for many people. Service Rep on window told me that my Background check has not come back yet.. It was almost 5 months since it was ordered.. She did not elaborate on why was it pending.. She asked me couple of weird question which did not make any sense to me. I have schedule another appointment in next couple of days to find out where do I stand. I would like to keep my expectations in check as pending BC can delay it even when priority dates are current.
    Can anyone on forum please provide some info on what can be done if Background check is pending over 180 days.. I can make a request to my Congressmen and ask for their help... Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated..

    Thanks

    I really donot believe they will do Background checks again before approvals for everybody. Can you please elaborate what was the reason for the interview and what were the weird questions -- You can give us a little flavor. -Thanks

    I know it has been discussed a couple of times but more I read about the keeping H1 status/Using EAD &AP the more confused I get. The problem stems from the fact that we want to use the goodies offered by AOS (EAD and AP) but concerned what happens to H1 status. Don't want to get H1 stamping but want to use H1 status.

    I talked to my lawyer and she prefers that I get H1 stamping when I go abroad and keep H1 as long as possible.

    We have been longing for a while to apply for AOS so that it frees us from H1B shackles and gives us freedom to work. But now that most of us got the EAD, most people don't want to use it (except perhaps the dependents who can now work)

    I want to play the devil's advocate for a min and say why not dump H1 and go with EAD/AP route.

    One of the advantages people cite with maintaining H1 status is that if some thing goes wrong with I485 , you can still stay here as long as H1 is valid. Another advantage is you don't need to renew EAD/AP every year (Cost) because H1 is given for 3 years (If retrogressed or have H1 time left).

    1) But if my I140 is approved and I am working with a good company and the GC is applied in good faith and have good lawyers working on it, what are the chances of rejection ?

    2) What is the appetite to start the GC all over by staying on H1 in case this GC is denied after 4-5 years(Likely for most). Ability to challenge the denial of course is different story.

    3) I believe most people who got EAD/AP now will continue to extend them just in case (to be safe). So the cost benefit is out of the window. And if the company pays for all the expenses for EAD/AP renewals should I care to keep the H1 status from the cost point of view.

    4) If I am willing to use AC21 and change the employer, I believe using EAD gives me more bargaining power than using the H1 because there are more options (Some companied don't do H1) and there is less work for the company (No need to file for H1 transfer)

    5) On other hand if I dump H1 status , I can work part time using EAD or start my own business etc.

    I see that it is a unanimous opinion that keeping the H1 is a good idea (Including my lawyer suggestion).

    I intention here is not to make a statement one way or the other. As I mentioned earlier, I wanted to play devils advocate and challenge some of the perceived benefits of keeping H1 and provoke some responses so that I know I am NOT missing the benefits of H1 that other people see.


    Your 2 cents please !!!!

    I think it is 45 working days, not counting weekends and holidays, that gives us 9 weeks of time to file for 140, that should be enough in most cases.

    I have said this before too....Rather than 9000 untrustworthy members, we should only have 900 trustworthy....

    Get people with fake email address out of forum...It will also get rid of someone who is from say NumberUSA.

    Make people with questions pay for answers. How about creating a system in which members do not answer to anyone's question untill he mentions about his contribution to this organization?
    Raj
    Macaca, you are so right in asking those blunt questions but is that going to make a difference? I dont think so, your audience here is very thick skinned and will come up with all the BS in the world to not contribute.

    I think we should not allow Leechers to start new threads. Conservation of resources should also be on the priority list when raising the money is such a difficult task.

    Well said, logic life too.

    For every dollar we donate through Paypal, 3% service fee will be deducted and only 97 cents go to IV. It will be substancial amount if all donations come in this way.

    Total AOS applications pending as of June-2008 is 740,969.
    What percentage of them is Eb-3? where did you get that 55% from?
    What % of EB3 is from india? Where did you get that 30% from?

    Thanks,
    g

    This pending AOS number (740,969) includes family based AOS and EB based. So we should ask them how many of these are EB based (including EB2/EB3).

    Mr Gotcher said one time that there are about 400K EB cases pending. So if that is true and USCIS doesn't waste any visas going forward then this backlog should clear in about 3-4 years assuming same rate of new applications in EB2 category

    Skilled, Legal Immigrants To March In A Protest Rally In Silicon Valley

    July 12, 2007

    What

    Hundreds of legal, highly-skilled workers, who feel disappointed by the recent "flip-flop" enacted by the Department of State (DoS) and the United States Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS), with regards to eliminating the Green-Card processing delays, plan to stage a peaceful rally to bring attention to their issues and to demand a fair and equitable treatment.

    Where

    The New City Hall 200 E Santa Clara St San Jose, CA 95113

    When

    July 14th, 2007.

    Planned Route

    11:00 AM: Meet at San Jose City Hall at 200 E Santa Clara St.
    11:30 AM: Go to the square in front of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Library (150 E San Fernando St).
    12:30 PM: Walk towards 635 N 1st St through S 4th St, E San Carlos St, Market Street and N 1st Street.
    1:15 PM: Arrive at 635 N 1st St and stay till 2:00 PM
    2:30 PM: back to City Hall

    Why

    Silicon Valley is the world’s most advanced crucible of innovation, an example that countries all over the world have tried to emulate. The success of Silicon Valley as a global hub of innovation has a lot to do with it being the world’s foremost melting pot of highly skilled immigrants. In San Jose, the heart of Silicon Valley, these highly skilled, legal immigrants who want to continue that tradition of innovation by becoming permanent residents of this country will stage a peaceful protest rally to bring awareness and attention to their issues.

    The people gathered at this peaceful walk are already huge contributors to the innovation edge of the US but their potential is still not fully tapped as it is still being hindered by unreasonable delays and bottlenecks in the process of gaining permanent residency (green-card).

    With this effort, the skilled, legal immigrant community hopes to create awareness about their predicament and express their anguish and frustration at the reversal and the lack of action from the Government. These are the highly skilled workers who have been driving the innovation in the US for many decades and have been living in this country legally and yet, they feel that their issues, concerns and contributions to the economy have largely gone unnoticed. According to exhaustive research done by Vivek Wadhwa, executive-in-residence at Duke University, if highly skilled immigrants in the U.S. don't have a chance to stay here permanently, would-be entrepreneurs take their skills back to their home countries—where they compete with U.S. companies instead of founding them.

    There are 140,000 Green cards allocated for highly-skilled workers and their dependents in a fiscal year (unused visas may not be rolled over to the next year). However, due to over-subscription, thousands of highly-skilled workers, including engineers, scientists, MBAs and health care professionals have been waiting patiently for years in order to be eligible to apply for their Green cards.

    Now, these highly-skilled professionals have decided to call attention to the "broken" immigration system in the U.S. for legal immigrants. Earlier this week – the community received widespread attention when hundreds of them sent flowers to the USCIS Director, Emilio Gonzalez. With the San Jose rally, the community of skilled, legal immigrants wants to put focus on people who have abided by the law, played by the rules and ask for a fair treatment and attention to their issues.
